I suggest that Adam not only named all the animals but sampled them as candidates for his mates on earth and found that they didn't entirely please him. Of course god being the servent of man, then created Eve !

Is this the orginal sin that nobody wants to talk about…...ADAM WAS INTO BEASTIALITY!

It often told that xianity has its roots in the pagan rituals. The one I've pasted is quite interesting and apt

Quote

The 12th-century Christian Gerald of Wales gave eyewitness accounts of early pagan rituals that shocked their readers, though his personal agenda would have certainly affected the spin he put on his descriptions.

Gerald recorded a ceremony in Ireland which took place in the early 1100s, where a crowd gathered to watch one of the tribal leaders have sexual intercourse with a horse, before killing it. After he had bathed in the blood of the animal, it was butchered, cooked and eaten by the assembled people.

Other depictions of pagan practices, such as the Bronze-Age stone carvings at Tanum, Sweden, show multiple groups of men with huge erections having sex with animals. The penis regularly appears as a symbol of fertility and power, though there has also been some suggestion that the images could be depicting men wearing prosthetic phalluses, gaining in stature depending on the importance of the individual. The penis represents the male god, but some of the religions that are included under the pagan umbrella give equal status to the female goddess.

Your description of Adam’s (pre-Eve) sexual escapades and of Pagan rituals that preceded an animal sacrifice reminded me of Michelangelo’s painting of “Noah"s Sacrifice” on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Here we see not only forms of beastiality, but a hint of sodomy as well all done in the name of God - how quaint.

It’s just amazing what Michelangelo “got away” with in the paintings on that ceiling. I mean, I’m impresseed by his audacity and surpised at the acquiesence of the church heirarchy. But then who knows what were the proclivities of the Pope at the time of Michelangelo - maybe the artist was familiar with that pope’s sexual exploits and simply appealed to his leudness and lustfulness - and got away with it.

I think you need to learn some scepticism. Only an atheist would be either gullible enough to believe this, or dishonest enough to post it anyway if he didn’t. Were you more sceptical, you would have realised this.
